Tri-Ed / Northern Video Distribution has added Kwikset to its extensive line of vendor partners. Kwikset offers a complete line of door locks and door hardware including door knobs, door levers, deadbolts, handlesets, pocket door hardware and electronic keyless entry locks for residential and light commercial applications.

Kwikset’s Home Connect Technology enables a door lock to wirelessly communicate with other devices in the home such as the security system and the lighting, thermostat, and home automation systems. It also allows for remote access to lock or unlock doors via any Smart Phone (Blackberry, iPhone, or Android) through Alarm.com applications. 

Tri-Ed / Northern Video Distribution has also added Alarm.com to its roster of vendor partners. Offering convenience and control for security systems using wireless, web and mobile technology, Alarm.com's technology platform enables consumers to monitor everything that happens in their homes or businesses. Alarm.com doesn’t require a phone line or broadband connection; services work wirelessly through a secure GSM network to maintain a dedicated connection that will continue to work for 24+ hours after a power failure.
